It was originally intended to run the second line from Church 

 Farm to Matthews' Green, but tidings of an outlying fox in one of 

 the Bill Hill fields led to the substitution of a fresh trail to Matthew's 

 Green Farm. Gater's ever ready and resourceful energy was equal 

 to the occasion, and after a brief consultation with the Master, 

 he was off on the substituted line, which was, unfortunately, pro- 

 ductive of much disaster. 



At the very first fence Riddell's horse came down ; result — 

 a splintered collar bone. At the second, Gogarty's horse, being a 

 bit out of hand, taking off too soon, fell into the ditch on the 

 landing side, and the rider got off with a dislocated shoulder. Into 

 the road more grief: Allenby on his head. Out of it a Crammer's 

 boy down, a pal on top of him. At the next fence the first whip's 

 horse, seeing a half-open gate, made for it, stopped short, and 

 merrily on goes the whip, clearing the gate in excellent style. 



Wildman Lushington from the other College determines not to 

 be outdone, and stands, not on ceremony, but on his head, and two 

 more sucking Napoleons from Fox's establishment swell the list of 

 " partees." 



The Junior Division, rising to the occasion, are, we believe, 

 presenting an ambulance as their gift. It will carry out drinks and 

 return with the wounded and empties.
